If you had only the free version of MyTether, then a simple delete from the launcher should be sufficient.

If you had the "Donor" version, there is quite a bit left over that has to be removed via command line.

Like what? I noticed that after uninstallation that the donor version of mytether left its ad-hoc network running and could actually still be connected to- albeit minus an actual web connection because the patch was no longer there.... Itd have been nice to know before doctoring my phone

Unfortunately, for free version a simple delete from launcher is insufficient you'd still need to uninstall it via commandline. The MyTether service is purposely made to install/uninstall difficultly via commandline. Specifically avoiding easy changes that would make it install/uninstall fine via WOSQI/Preware. Coincidentally his "donor" version includes an installer. Take from that what you will.

Yeah I dug up my uninstaller and ran it three or four times and it did not help- When I installed it, I had to run it 4 times to get the app to finally 'actually' install and show up in the launcher.

humm....got the patch, thanks jason! But not understanding the instructions here....not seeing which port to set to what on the usb passthrough app....

Same here, but I think the last 3 options might correspond to "just charge, USB drive, and media sync. (Just a guess for now. Searching (or begging) to learn more at the moment! )

EDIT: I saw some instructions saying to leave everything alone, but I don't believe doing so has any effect. I had the "Linux USB Ethernet/RNDIS Gadget" (hand) installed on my laptop from the old days, and I get "Pre" showing up as a device (just as had happened in MyTether for USB mode), but I suspect that IP forwarding was not turned on because I didn't get web pages to display when only this interface is enabled). If I learn more, I'll update (but this isn't my highest priority task at the moment).

I am able to USB tether with just freeTether... I did use Terminal to enable usbnet though.

OK, so I installed FreeTether and MHS. I was able to connect to the internet with MHS. I don't really need a hot spot, just to connect via tether. Is there any advantage to using MHS, as opposed to just using FreeTether? And, does FreeTether work by itself, or do I have to open MyTether, enable USBNet and then use FreeTether? If that is the case, it is just as much work as using MyTether.

Finally, many thanks to everyone who helped bring us all these programs, MyTether, FreeTether, and whoever made MHS available for us on Sprint. You have performed a great service for the Pre-verse.

If you want to USB tether, you can use freeTether or MyTether... no need for both.

To use freeTether for USB tethering however you will need to enable Usbnet, this can be done though the USB PassThrough or through the Terminal app. You only have to enable Usbnet once I believe, as long as you don't disable it the setting sticks.

For USB tethering, the only real difference, on the user's side, between the two is that MyTether does have the usbnet option built in. However I - personally - trust the DEVs of freeTether more than those of MyTether at this point, so take that for what it is, my opinion.

hi,
I did a mistake: installing mythether and the IP-forwarding patch to use mobile hotspot. Later I saw: this was not necessary on my german pre. In the contrary. Mobile Hotspot is connecting but not working (I assume no IP forwarding) and the genuine tethering brought by Palm with the last update 1.3.5.2 is not working now too. The same symptoms.
Please help. Thanks
